A Portrait of Cecile Richards for this week's #graydaystudiowomenwednesday.
I had this sketchbook idea in the fall- to pair suffragettes with the civil
rights movement and then with today's current battle women face against our
country's female healthcare system, planned parenthood, to be in control of
our bodies, to have access to healthcare of all sorts. So after reading her
interview on @lennyletter the visual was complete with Cecile at the helm
of the movement. And when Cecile's friend said to her before she went
before Congress, “May the rage of women through the centuries center you as
you go into this.” BOOM that was it! We owe it to the women who came before
and to future generations, to be treated as equals and to be given the
respect we deserve. Congress- stop trying to defund our healthcare, stop
taking away our control.🔹 Have an inspiring Wednesday!🔹 (available for
purchase soon!) #standwithplannedparenthood #LennyLetter #cecilerichards
